Brother Adam Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I convinced a Protestant friend of mine that Mary is the Queen of Heaven. It took me about 23 minutes. I'm not even sure he connected yet what he was hearing from me as we dug through the Bible with the fact that they are "Mariam Dogmas of the Catholic Church" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach_cube Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 That's great! Wait till he realizes that they are Dogmas of the Church! Definitely a kodak moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Adam Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 yeah. 'Mariam Dogma' and Solomons mom serving as queen mother and Jesus and Mary at Cana and roles we have in the kingdom of God in heaven all haven't quite come together as being about the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photosynthesis Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 you make it sound like a sport or something... ESPN presents... the SPEED APOLOGETICS CHAMPION Brother Adam, who convinced a Protestant in 23 minutes that MARY is the Queen of Heaven. "So, Brother Adam, how does that make you feel?"

Brother Adam Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 Just use the name "Mary" and refer to her only in what she did in the Bible and then draw a whole lotta typological references to Queen Mothers in the kingdom of Israel in the Old Testament. As long as you don't say "Blessed Virgin" or "Mary Mother of God" they keep their defenses down and actually listen for a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photosynthesis Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 hmm... perhaps Bro. Adam is becoming faster than his sensei! We should have a timed apologetics match between Al and Bro. Adam to settle this once and for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
